Ack.. this changes my preseason NFL picks

Isn't some wide reciever back this year after rehabbing last year from a near death motorcycle accident. Cleveland or something, 1st round pick too I think.

Hey now, he's a ****ing soldier!!

Reports now are he was in violation of his Learners permit. Which had expired a few months ago. If the reports are correct, his status as a Learner permit, required him to wear a helmet. Even though state law allows a choice. A permit does not. At least thats a version I have heard

Missing and broken teeth, fractured jaw... mostly the serious wounds appear facial. So not just a helmet but a full face.

And not just his choice... but his requirement under the law.... expired license... reguardless.

But sounds like he coulda benifited from one in this case. Having a choice does not mean chosing NOT too all the time. It equaly allows you to chose to wear one.

I find it somewhat suprizing that of all people a FOOTBALL player would be riding w/o a helmet.

How many times during games do you think that guy has had the value of head protection proven to him?

Interesting that you bring that up...

Does this mean if they ALLOWED him to chose to wear one in the Football game he would chose NOT to?

Karma for stealing the superbowl away from the seahawks

Well...its seems like the question answers itself given the info I have. Since helmets are optional where he rides and he chooses not to wear one...then I can't go on a limb and say that he would wear one during a game if he didn't have to.
